In the last few years I have become very sensitive to feeling too constricted in bras. I've tried on more brands and styles than I can count, and the band always feels too constricting in the back and on the sides. Perhaps it's because I had surgery 3 years ago, but I think it's just that I have very sensitive skin. I'm also a tad hard to fit, because now that I'm pushing 60 I just don't fill out the top portion of most bra cups, and I have a petite frame that makes many "full coverage" bras cover more than they're supposed to. My "official" bra size according to the expert fitters is 32DD aka 32E, but I have stopped buying that size because I can't stand the tight feeling of the band. Finally, one day, after an hour of trying on bras at a big department store, a sales assistant offered her help. I told her my whole story, including my aversion to 32" bands. She brought me this bra almost immediately in a size 34D and I could not believe how comfortable it was. For me, it is actually more comfortable than the "all lingerie" bras that have no hooks at all. Even more amazing, the fit is perfect for my petite figure. The cups end where they should and don't come up too high. Not sure why this is marketed as a "full coverage" bra, as I'm guessing it would not be so on a larger woman, but that's just a hunch. The only con is that the colors are a bit kooky, but the "gunmetal", which is a lavendarish gray color, is pretty and is a decent substitute for the black I usually wear with all my black and gray clothes. The cups are nicely contoured for modesty, and do not add a bra size to my ample enough chest. If anything, I would say it is slightly minimizing on me. And having said all that, it also gives good support and looks great under my tops. So, for me, this bra does it all.

I am 52, and rather suddenly I am more well endowed than I have previously been due to peri-menopause. All of my old sports bras were no longer adequate for support or coverage. I work out at the gym and long distance hike regularly so I need great support. This bra wicks moisture really well and is super comfortable with excellent support and coverage. Sometimes I wear it when I am not working out--it is that good! I went with the 34 D which fits perfectly, but in the Wacoal La Femme T-Shirt Bra and the Chantelle Rive Gauche I am 34 DD. I hope this bra is never discontinued.

So far, so good. In the past I haven't had good luck with strapless bras - sometimes they slide, or just made my breasts look unnatural/unattractive under my clothing, but this one supports me well - almost too well! It was a little tight, so I only hook it on the second level. Overall I am satisfied with the product.

I'm a pretty reliable 32DD and this bra fit nicely. The straps have some elastic, and are somewhat thin so there could be a bit of bounce. The bra fit snugly around the ribcage, which is good for a narrow chest like mine. The bra looked very nice without clothing, but I would say it didn't provide as high a lift as some others in clothing, so it may be better for those lower cut tops and for button down shirts, as it also reduces projection somewhat, but in a very natural way. Overall, I liked it as an addition to my variety of bras and it will work well for some outfits, especially looser tops.

This bra made my 42 year old breast look like teenage breasts! I kid you not. The girls were lifted and perky, and I looked great in a form fitting shirt. This bra is also very comfortable. I was disappointed to see that it was molded (minimal padding), but after wearing once, I was beyond ecstatic! It is also very supportive. I LOVE THIS BRA and I plan on purchasing another!

The Natori bras are made very well, and I did like this one, however, I didn't like the way it pushed my breasts to the side and up, so that my arms kept hitting the sides of my breasts. It is a comfortable bra, but almost too comfortable and soft, so you kind of feel like there is not enough support.
It did not work for me so it went back. I purchased another bra-Fantasie Rebecca Spacer Full Cup T shirt Bra, and it fits much better.

It's hard to find a front close bra for a large cup size. I don't have to deal with the straps falling off my shoulders. I bought the largest cup size made (G) in a 34 and the cups just barely contain my breasts. The 32 G was far too small. This bra is so comfortable because it's very stretchy. It's supportive enough for everyday. The cup fabric is a double layer of a mesh type weave but nipples don't show through.

I love the comfort and softness of this bra. The nylon fabric is super smooth to the touch. The foam cups have tiny perforations that actually breathe. Coverage under my arms and around my back is very good and adds super support. The straps are adjustable and have no strectch which gives more support.
The hook and eye are padded soI can wear it for yoga too. I don't feel the hook and eye when I'm on my back.
I normally wear a 34F and in this bra that's what I wear.

I love the memory foam and softness of this bra. The support feels great. I wear a 34F and pop a tiny bit out of the top. I think because it plunges a tad. The sheer mesh gives a little sexiness to the bra too.
The nursing hook can be worked with one hand and you don't even notice the hook. It looks like a regular everyday sexy t shirt bra.

Love, love, love this strapless! First of all, the color is gorgeous! Second of all it supports the girls, it doesn't just sit there expecting you to do all of the work. I ordered it in a 34GG and it's fan-freaking-tastic! I shouldn't be so suprised because my other good strapless bra is made by Fantasie; this bra is exceptional!

A lot of reviewers said this bra ran small in the cup size so I bought a cup size larger than I wear. But it turns out for me, anyway, the cups were true-to-size and I had to return the larger bra for my regular size. I bought this bra and two other, cheaper nursing bras. I liked this one so much I bought two more! It's so comfortable. The cups are soft enough that they fold down easily to nurse your little one, but they are also very supportive for larger breasts.

I LOVE this bra!! I bought it in white a year ago. I just got it in black. I have slight scoliosis and with a dropped right shoulder am constantly pulling the right strap back up, but with this bra the criss-cross solved that! I bought the Fantasie Jana Convertible T-shirt bra to try something different and I couldn't get in it! With this Freya Deco I hook up the straps in the back, cross it over and hook it at the cup. Easy! I have a tiny bit of spillage out of the cup if I'm bent over moving around, but other than that it's perfect! It's not too thick of padding, but if you're self conscience about "headlights" when you are cold no worries with this bra! I will say this about this bra, you might want to go down a band size and up a cup size simply because after a year the band tends to get a little stretched out. This is what I did for the black one and it worked perfectly!

Natori Truly Smooth Back Smoothing Convertible T-Shirt Bra in Cafe color. It blends with body color.
It is a very comfortable bra, you feel smooth support on sides of your ribcage. I feel, like I don't have a bra on.
However, I washed it in a net on delicate setting, and fabric came loose by the hooks; not enough was tucked in when sewn together. I fixed it, and hope not more will come loose. (Never happend on any of my cheaper bras).
Look for a good sale and buy it!

Just discovered this new Wacoal spacer! I love the Wacoal Seduction Spacer, so I decided to try their new spacer as well and its perfect!
I am a full 36G and am 6 months pregnant, its keep me cool and doesn't dig anywhere. I am a huge fan of spacer bras vs foam lined bras, they are much lighter and don't add as much bulk.

I'm watching by inbox for a coupon code, so I can get another! The fit, the shape, the support, the feel, everything is great, and it's pretty too. The clips work well even one handed. It's nice it includes an extender for pregnancy and a way to convert to a normal bra after nursing.

I've recently sized up to a 32 G and tried this bra because it looked like a good t-shirt bra and it's sexy. The band in the front is thick and the material underneath the breasts rolls up a little. I wore it today with the dread of breaking in a new bra and it was moderately comfortable. It is smooth under a t-shirt but noticeable through white. It needs to be a little darker nude to not be seen. The padding is a little more than I'm used to but not a deal breaker. Overall, I like it and am considering purchasing another. I'm giving it 4 stars because I prefer the Natori hidden glamour bra which deserves 5 stars for it's incredibly soft material and no break in period.

I am keeping the bra but it is not a perfect fit for me. I felt the size was running a little small compared to other brands. I ordered the bra after my wire came thru my other black bra. The shape is good but I did not feel it gave me any lift as mentioned by other reviewers. The shape from the size is very round- almost could be a minimizer. The material and construction is high quality.

This bra is a dream come true! I am a 32DD and I am fed up with push-up bras and heavy padding, so I opted for this Natori bra because it looked stylish and sexy without the padding. I love the look of the sheer mesh - it's more unexpected and still sexy without being overly frilly or lacy. The seaming would show under a super-tight t-shirt but looks great if you plan on wearing something more flowy. It is so comfortable on, too! The light padding is breathable and gives a great rounded shape, and the fit is true to size. I bought it in black and will be buying the nude as well!

there is a little push up in the bottom of the cup. It gives my breasts a little lift, very nice. I didn't go up a band size, I went up a cup size though. I wear a 34F. I think the push up takes up a little space in the bottom of the cup. Usually I start on the middle hook, 2nd hook. With this bra, I started on the loosest, 3rd hook, so I guess it does run a little bit tight. I love the lace, it's totally lined underneath so none of it rubs against my body. super comfortable. there is non slip silicon on the top and bottom of the bra all the way around. I now can wear skinny straps or no straps thanks to this bra.

This bra is very supportive, but the sides of the bra come up so high under the armpit that it causes some chafing. I'm a petite 5'3" person wearing a 32DDD, perhaps a taller person may not have this problem.

I like this bra. It a solid strapless bra. I went down a band and up a cup, as I wanted a snug fit. It was a good decision. I do wish there was a little less shaping on the cup, but that will happen with a strapless. Overall, I am pleased - as it is hard to find strapless bras in my size.

I love Empreinte; I have to stay, being a 30G / 32F it's hard to find bras that don't compress or have odd shapes. These are gorgeous, and flattering, and feminine. They're also super comfy, prevent back fat/side boob. I'm not used to the girls being so prominent, but hey, it's an added benefit. They didn't have a 30 band size in this style for my cup size, so I went one band size up and a cup up, and the fit was nearly identical. Cups do run a little large in this brand, just FYI.

I am typically a 32DDD and I bought this bra after having baby number 2 and bought a 34 F. I LOVE the way it fits. I do not have excess coming out of the cup and the fit around fits perfectly. I totally recommend this for small figures with big busts! I had to ditch my underwire bras because they were blocking my production and making me hurt, and while I never didn't own an underwire due to my size, I feel this gives me the support I need.

This is a great looking bra, and now I can finally wear the convertible after I bought so many where the straps were too short. It really could use more shaping. It contains my breasts, but I found I needed to adjust to keep them from gathering in the center. Overall it's a great bra, but at 38G I am grateful to have a convertible bra.

While the best fitting bras I have worn recently have been Chantelle and Betsey Johnson, this bra seems to be a contender for being right in their league. The only caveats I have are that a) the straps are so wide-set that they might perhaps "pinch"into skin a bit at the underarm area (in "standard" strap mode); however, the width means they are also great for use under wide-and-low-necked T-shirts, and b) of the 2 I have purchased, the foam on one of the cups seemed to "roll" a bit outward at the top area, so that one had to be returned (manufacturing issue?) On the plus side, the fabric on the band is super comfortable - soft and silky feeling, as well as apparently durable.
I have not had this product long enough to assess how well it holds up over time (I wash my bras on gentle cycle in cold water in a bra bag), but I am quite hopeful, as the construction seems reasonably solid.

I bought 38ddd. I am between 36 and 38 so this fits well as it is a bit on the small size in the band. Very comfortable and supportive and looks good under t shirts. I would buy more but they are out of my size. I hope it is restocked. Love the Wacoal brand.

I love this bra,and have it in two colors. It fits well, and is very comfortable-- more than regular bras for yoga as neither the straps nor the underwire cut in with movement. These bras are very comfortable. Finally a sports bra in large size that I can wear with any yoga tank. It doesn't have any ugly seams across the front cups, which many sports bras (including other Freya bras) have. When the straps show the colors are cute. In fact, don't worry about the buying the bright blue bra -- the straps are the only thing that show and the pink/yellow combo looks good. In addition to blue I also have it in black with white trim and have ordered the crimson color. I've been wearing it for the past few months and always one of these to workouts now.

I wear a 38E. this bra fits really well and gives a very nice shape to my breasts.
It is definitely supportive and looks good under form fitting shirts and sweaters.
it has cute bow details on it as well.

This is my 2nd Natori sports bra and I find them very comfortable. I am a 36DDD and it gives good support for my Jazzercise class. I wouldn't recommend running in one but for yoga, biking and aerobic classes it is very good. I have both the racer back and the convertible strap version, the racer back is slightly tricky to do up at first but after that it's pretty easy. I like the fabric on the Natori and they come in great colours.

I love this bra! I was a little skeptical ordering a bra that I hadn't tried on in a store, but this one fits true-to-size. Probably the best part about it is that it fits me like it does on the model. I wear a 32F so I didn't want too much push-up, but I like the "full" effect. This one gives a little bit of a push-up effect, but nothing over-the-top. Just enough to make my boobs look perky! It's nice to finally find a cute bra in my size that also fits nicely!
